We are always looking for somewhere to go,
A direction to saunter — why? I don’t know.
We follow these signposts, but they lead us astray,
We’ll venture each roadside, tread along the pathway.

We’re meant to have a meaning, a reason to stride,
A destination to reach that’s been tested…

ILLUMINATION

In a parallel universe I imagine I’m an astro-archaeologer or an orange cat (either way, I’m curled up on the moon) but here, and forever, I’m a storyteller.
